Councillors' Details

Passionate about the community, that's why I became a councillor. Local issues need support as do the local groups. I mainly work with most but the most rewarding is our Rotary Club 'Bradgate'.

Their message being "like minded people joining forces for the better good". We need plenty of that to bring all the groups in the village together; we have so many but really do they get together for the better good.

That's my challenge and a challenge I give to all.
